Can I model emissions from Electric, Fuel-Cell, and Hybrid Vehicles and Equipment in MOVES?
See More Frequent Questions about MOVES and Related Models . Electric vehicles and equipment do not generate tailpipe or evaporative emissions like conventional vehicles. However, these vehicles do consume energy, leading to greenhouse gas emissions, and they generate brake and tire particulate matter (PM) emissions. MOVES includes electricity as a…
